Last week they appointed a committee, headed by Fred C. tSephart, to raise this amount among the citizens of Tremonton. Can we raise it ? A lot of people doubt it.

It will probably be the last time you will be asked to donate to the fair in this manner, as the fair board assures us that with a start of one thousand dollars this year the fair will be self supporting. .
